Russia’s Defense Ministry said Monday its troops captured the village of Levadne, in the Zaporizhzhia region, more than a year after Ukrainian forces had retaken the area following Russia’s full-scale invasion.
The Russian ministry said its forces “liberated” the village and occupied better positions in the area.
Zaporizhzhia Governor Ivan Fedorov reported on Telegram that Russian forces had shelled the area, but did not say anything about a change in control.
